This is having trouble getting off the ground and I want it to work well. I did get proxies of the most expensive stuff in here, so that's not an issue, i just have problems getting an engine going. Thoughts?

Replace one of the wraths with Winds of Abandon and consider only keeping Winds + Harsh Mercy. Replace the 3cmc mana rock with the BW Talisman. Look into maybe adding Stillmoon Cavalier and Vona, Butcher of Magan. Find room for Path to Exile. Replace (or supplement) Unbreakable Formation with Flawless Maneuver. Find room for Akroma's Will. Herald's Horn, Eldrazi Monument, and Coat of Arms might all be good. Gideon, Ally of Zendikar makes 2/2 Knights. You might want two or three more lands. Some of your Knights are marginal as well. Maybe the black and white elemental knights (the Cavaliers) might be worth playing. Gideon's Phalanx and Call the Cavalry seem bad. Maybe some card draw would be good. I think Black had a good tribal one, Pact of the Serpent?

Vona's Hunger might be a nice pseudo-wrath. Haunting Voyage and/or Patriarch's Bidding to rebuild your board after an opposing Wrath.

they're consistent/good quality, work well with Dragon Shields, and aren't terribly expensive (like ~$30 per 1k)

You want to win the game by dealing conventual combat damage. In this case something like 80 combat damage.

Your creatures cost an okay amount of mana, and you have a decent amount of anthems and force multipliers. I would probably cut some creatures for some more rocks, I'd jam every 2 cost rock in you can, https://www.moxfield.com/decks/Hv8pnTuEo0-CiELajkG-iA ; https://www.moxfield.com/decks/IRjQ0CvB-02Ixhcdc050_Q and I'd jam in some protection from board wipes, I'd cut your board wipes, or if you want to try to arrange asymetric board wipes I'd cut down to the 4 cost ones, drat, damnnation, wrath of god, shatter they sky, keep kaya's wrath, depopulate, those ones, so you could potentially get up to 6 or 7 mana, and then give your creatures indestructible, then board clear.

Your deck is actually pretty good for the gameplan and commander you have, the biggest problem is it is not a very good plan to win the game. You can certainly take some steps to optimize it though, I'm guessing your pod isn't super aggressive so you want to fit in.

Seconding KMC Perfect Fits. KMC also sells "Perfect Hards", which are thicker and stiffer, but add enough width to your deck that it won't fit in standard deck boxes. I had to get an extra large Gamegenic box to fit the deck I put in Perfect Hards.

I agree with the previous posters, but if your plan is to win via combat damage, you need a big evasion finisher, something to drop and totally recalculate how much damage you can get through, ideally to the point that you start dropping opponents.

My personal favorites in those colors are Eldrazi Monument, Akroma's Memorial, and Akrmoa's Will (which doubles as board wipe protection).

I would also suggest fitting one or two more enchantment removal spells in there, as the Propaganda suite will shut you down hard, although how often you see those may be playgroup dependent.

What's a good source online for more spindown dice? I really like them for all sorts of tabletop games as I don't have to hunt for the numbers and none of the LGSs near me have a bucket of them for $0.50 each like they used to.

Those were the days. A few years ago I managed to get a few of the Dragons of Tarkir prerelease dice for less than a dollar a piece. Later I realized they were going for $10+ a piece.

Cheap bucket dice are usually made by Chessex, so if you can find a vendor for them you may be able to literally buy them by the pound.

It's ill advised to use fingers to track life totals. People give you weird looks and they'll start to smell after a short time.

Historically, lairs don't arrive until a few months after ordering them. I guess whenever they decided all sales were final and started demanding payment up front, this pace picked up a bit. I got my Extra Life lair in what felt like a week.

Still waiting on Ito and Space Beyond the Stars, but I wouldn't be surprised if those weren't on my doorstep for another month yet.

Was watching Prof's deckbox video and came across this card:

https://www.mtggoldfish.com/price/Brothers+War+Commander/Rootpath+Purifier

Rootpath Purifier
Creature — Elf Druid

Lands you control and land cards in your library are basic.

Mythic 3 / 4

It's saying it's in the Brother's War Commander set, but none of the precon commander decks are running green in them and the card isn't in retro frame like the rest of the precons. Am I missing something like it's only found in set boosters?
